      In a recent paper, Emily Riehl and Dominic Verity have shown that the (strict) 2-category of quasi-categories captures already a lot of information about the category theory of quasi-categories.
In this talk, we will present some of their constructions and results. We will discuss weak 2-limits and in particular weak comma objects. We will also define adjunctions, equivalences, terminal objects and limits in a 2-categorical way.
